A guidebook
From the desk of 820ambition
I can't tell you that I know enough about this life to where I'm at the point that there's a list of things I'm completely sure of. Now, after twenty years roaming this Earth sometimes it feels the only thing I can be sure of is myself. Perhaps you've heard the phrase, "Not all those who wander are lost." Well I'm wandering and I don't really care if I'm lost.
As I wander, I write, I think, I feel, I experience, I remember and I forget. I capture, I record, I learn, I try to understand and help understand. Obstacles surround me just as they surround all of us. Holding us back, pushing us down and separating us to all different sides. But there is no sense in over-complicating this situation; over-analyzing it until the mere thought of its existence causes one to do nothing at all to avoid confronting these obstacles head on. Its kind of like stressing over the amount of time it will take to fold your laundry. It would be over much quicker if you just grab that ball of clothes, lay them out and start folding.
Life can be approached in a similar manner.
I might not know where I'm going, what I'm doing or how I'll get there, all I know is that I'm going. I might not follow the same path as others or travel a familiar course, but I know that the journey is just as important as the destination.
This is what 820 is about.

Midnight moves till the orange just fades to blue, mind energy derived into
Script lines, new record, upload successful; concise technique no gains for the restful

Wander through trees leaves encased in ice, overflow with style around town entice
Orange slice on the tip, not Q but the moon, its blue and we're due it'll pickup soon

Look past look beyond venture far south, ride these cool blue waters and just close your mouth
Speak when spoken, don't fix whats not broken, clutch with your fist you only got one token

George will be remembered most of all for his steadfast loyalty to his family, friends, colleagues and community, his generous spirit, unassuming intelligence and moral character. He will be greatly mourned by those who were blessed to know him.

Conviction coupled with doubt. Visions of clarity, a lucid perception. Impeded by the elements with boulders left to climb. Frustration, yet persistence. Thoughts, dreams, self.. incomplete; yet seemingly close to comprehension..

Keef drip drop on the kush like raindrops, rain drops - so I'm illin' till the rain stops
Stingray sits across the Cove looking lonesome, pen to the pad roasting bowls cause its wholesome

It leads... forward as the rhythm, succeed with precision, undefeatable with each lifetime excision
I drop it all... though a little, and I venture venture, wake me up at twelve I'll take a bike adventure

Words spoken from a son, on his late father
Easy to hide but he decided to bother
Man from boy, young but talented ... He said
Love the good life but appreciate its challenges.

Innovation with no station, losing patience, mind vacation
I'm spacing off elation, no need for explanation
Elation is defined not in rhyme but over time
As an uplifting state of continuous pride
Thats pride and optimism, the absence of depression
Sunshine upon you refracts through your mental prism

Shoes on your feet, lucky to eat
How to continue on until its time to meet
Your maker.. explain to your taker
The divine creator draws a line on the paper

Just got the audio, shit made my lyrical, essence of the track goes deep and spiritual
Ignition in the booth, transfer to the digital, we're all crew but we craft as individuals
May 22, 2008
A flight into the night
Insight, ignite the mind
Writing is how I legitimize it every time
Patience; a virtue, waiting is not
Got to strike now while the iron's hot

Rule #7 - Always be moving forward. Never stop investing. Never stop improving. Never stop doing something new. The moment you stop improving your organization, it starts to die. Make it your goal to be better each and every day, in some small way. Remember the Japanese concept of Kaizen. Small daily improvements eventually result in huge advantages.

Since 2003, I've known that the path in which I'm destined to follow would not be easy. It would not be quick, smooth, void of obstacles, inexpensive, painless or easy. If it was, it wouldn't be worth striving for. My path is unfamiliar, unknown, treacherous and long, yet rewarding. I share my thoughts and my art with the world because it represents who I am and what I feel. My thoughts and feelings aren't any more or less important than anybody else's - I simply can't help but to share them. These thoughts have run through my mind as long as I can remember and will continue to do so as long as I live. We all have beautiful minds, how we utilize its power and transfer its force into the world is entirely up to us.

Each and every day, moving forward is my foreword
Climbing to results as ends come toward
Trust is minimal, no subliminal
Listen to this verse cause each word is pivotal
February 26, 2008
Loyalty and trust, hard to find these days
A guiding light in darkness when you've lost your ways
Believe in yourself, your dreams keep you alive
Whatever gives you drive, ignites your mind

As a fellow player in this game I've come to realize some of the complexities of life while continuing to learn new ones along the way. In this game: the players change, the rules change, there are no referees, the hall of fame is too broad to contain in one location and there are millions of ways to both win and lose. You can even lose and win simultaneously. In comparison to the games we've created for ourselves and our society, I can honestly say I've never played one quite like this.

In a jar thats a mason is the station for my nougats
My breakfast cereal is usually whatever Drew gets
From cruets of syrup and running through a kitchen
No longer do I have to listen to incessant bitching

Find yourself inspired, neck deep in your mental
Go ahead and steal my words, they're just sentimental
Everythings a rental, from people to cars
Turn off your TV and rent your mind to the stars

Ambition is like adrenaline because it burns deep in your soul
So deep you don't know where it is but you know it makes you whole
Though unsure of its location you know how to find it
Like when you come across a thought but don't know how to rhyme it

What to think, how to feel, where to focus the mind? So much going on, you can really never have everything exactly as you'd like it. You can only hustle, keep moving, keep attacking, never back down, never surrender. Just like he said; one thing at a time. Over think and you'll overwhelm.
October 23, 2007
Mind remains stainless even through times of anguish
Until unexpected words cause personal issue to vanquish.
Find a job, go to school, get to the library
Then to witness grueling examples of how life is temporary.

We're all here together. There is no manual for this life; no guidebook, no checklist, no fountain of wisdom. We have ourselves, our feelings, our contributions to existence, the world and the people that surround us. What we do to each other effects everyone just like what we do to the world effects everyone. Those that existed long before us set a framework of this world we live in and enjoy everyday. What are we doing with it? What are we doing with our nature, our water, our people, our lives, our friends, our days, our hearts, our bodies, our time, our world?
